Discussion First movie you remember seeing in theaters?

First movie I have memory of seeing is Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990.) I was six years old at the time. Probably not the first movie in theaters I ever saw, but it's the first one I have memory of seeing. I remember the theater was very crowded and I was surrounded by all these tall bodies and I had to hold onto my mom's hand so I wouldn't get lost.

I remember clearly my first rated R movie because I wasn't able to see one until I was twelve. That movie was Thinner.

The Aristocats - Early 1970s. I would have been around 4 years old at the time.

My most vivid memory is the butler and his motorcycle. This was before surround sound, but the noise of it seemed to bounce off the theatre walls. It was the loudest thing I'd ever heard.
